Randolph Scott is his usual stiff but smiling self as Leo Vincey, the long-lost American heir to a British family legacy, sent by his estranged father to reclaim the legendary "Flame of Life," discovered five centuries ago by his explorer ancestor. Producer Merian C. Cooper, best known for directing King Kong, changes the locale of H. Rider Haggard's classic adventure from Africa to the Arctic (which, apart from a spectacular avalanche, looks positively stagebound), but he pulls out all stops for the magnificent underground kingdom hidden in the icy mountains, complete with a cavernous throne room with vaulted ceilings and a massive staircase that would look right at home in the Ziegfeld Follies. The cruel She Who Must Be Obeyed (Helen Gahagan) is a beautiful but icy queen driven ruthless by her centuries of loneliness. The film takes some time to get started but once She makes her impressive entrance through a mist-enshrouded arch, we're plunged into a dangerous, exotic world of strange ceremonies, human sacrifices, nefarious plots, and the gorgeous whirlwind of light that is the Flame of Life. Though the dialogue is often flat and uninspired and the performances by Scott and Gahagan rather arch (costars Nigel Bruce and Helen Mack fare much better), this grand adventure concludes with a rousing climax full of impressive set pieces and breathtaking effects. --Sean Axmaker

When I bought this film two weeks ago I was somewhat familiar with the title, felt I should check this ting out...
I saw it with Mama and we both became spellbound with our mouths wide open.....Many a film has been been released under the banner "You have never seen things like this" - and this film is it.... It is firmly in my movielibrary - every scene(except the last) is hypnotic... IT+s the Ibsen and Shakespeare of the 30s adventure film(with King Kong of course)... Be sure to ... Read More

OK, we can talk long time about: color or b/w. Originally filmed in b/w but was been plans to make it in color. The DVD has both version. The bonus features is very interesting and Mr. Ray Harryhausen told about why he did this.

This film is dated, but still Great! The digital colorization, personally supervised by Ray Harryhausen no less, is nothing short of stunning! When you watch a film like this, 70 plus years old, but made with style and enthusiasm, it is hard not to be entertained. I Love It!

"I am yesterday, today, and tomorrow. I am sorrow and longing and hope unfulfilled. I am She Who Must Be Obeyed!"
There's never been an entirely successful sound version of H. Rider Haggard's She, but on re-viewing, the 1935 version comes far closer than any of its rivals. After five silent versions of varying degrees of popularity, a lavish version reuniting many of the team behind King Kong must have seemed a box-office slamdunk (though not enough of one for RKO to approve the cost ...

A truly remarkable film and an overlooked classic. Great Special Effects for the time period and a totally entertaining action/adventure film on par with King Kong. The colorization of this film under the supervision of Ray Harryhausen is awesome. This is a FUN film that should be seen....
